Stockholm, 16 May 2024. Orior Capital (“Orior”) has initiated coverage of Northgold AB (Nasdaq First North Growth Market: “NG”, or “Northgold” or the “Company”). Orior’s experienced research analyst, Simon Francis, has reviewed available public information and issued a detailed research initiation. The initiation report reviews many aspects of the Company and stock, including valuation considerations and a conceptual development scenario for the Company’s flagship Kopsa copper-gold project in central Finland. The report is attached to this release, and will be available on the Company’s website, under: Investors. The analysis is a so-called commissioned research where Northgold has signed an agreement with Orior for research coverage. The intention is to increase Northgold's visibility on the capital market and enable both investors and other stakeholders to form a better and more informed opinion of the Company's operations. The analyses are produced against customary fixed remuneration.
Highlights
- The research report underpins a prospective Northgold valuation of SEK18.50/sh, based on the average enterprise value (“EV”) per resource ounce (“oz”) for Orior’s selected comparable peer group, applied to Northgold’s mineral resources.
- Increased mineral resources at Kopsa, and the results of the geophysics survey highlight significant development potential.
- New CEO appointed to drive growth.
